 * Simply put, you won’t be able to restore a 5-10GB MySQL Database through phpMyAdmin.
   You’ll have to upload it to the server and use SSH (Shell) to restore it from
   the command line.
 * Trying to upload that large of a database through the browser will not only timeout,
   but any data from the database also has a good chance of corruption.

 * Have you tried uploading a .htaccess file to your root WordPress installation
   folder and CHMOD’ing it to 666? You’ll need to set the correct permissions to
   the .htaccess file before WordPress will be able to write to and update it.

 * WordPress is merely a piece of software using MySQL as it’s database backend.
   The true limitations being imposed would only be limited to that of your web 
   hosting environment.
 * For example, an active website with the number of categories, pages and posts
   you mentioned in your above post would probably be overkill in a shared hosting
   or reseller hosting environment simply due to the number of constant queries 
   to the MySQL database server.
 * Using a caching method, such as the Super Cache Plugin would reduce constant 
   querying, however, you’re still looking at quite a hit in a hosting environment
   where there are multiple or hundreds of other users on the exact same server 
   your hosting your website on.
 * If you’re running the above on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) or a Dedicated 
   Server, then you’re only limitations would be the hardware that’s available to
   you.
 * Apache, MySQL, PHP and WordPress can all be optimized, some more than others,
   however, in a shared environment (shared & reseller), you’re limited to optimizing
   WordPress as best you can since you’re not going to have access to any of the“
   root level” files such as my.cnf (for MySQL), php.ini (for PHP) or apache.conf(
   for Apache).
 * So, in short, is it possible? Yes, though if it you plan on it being an active
   website, then you’re going to need more than a shared or reseller hosting environment.
   Possibly more than VPS depending on what level of VPS you choose.

 * The Leopard Admin theme works with WordPress 2.5+. I’m currently using it and
   I love it : -).

 * Have you tried contacting StartLogic’s support department regarding the installation
   problems you’re having with their in-house installation script?
 * I’m not sure if they use CPanel or a variation of it, however, with CPanel you
   have to enter usernames and database names as user_dbuser and user_dbname where
   user is the username you use to login to the control panel.
 * For instance, if your username is pigagne and you create a user user01 and a 
   database wordpress, then you’d use pigagne_user01 as the database username and
   pigagne_wordpress as the database name.
 * For MySQL host, you should be able to use the standard localhost configuration
   unless they are using a separate MySQL cluster server for the MySQL server, in
   which case you’d need to grab the IP address and use it instead of localhost.

 * Delete your .htaccess file in your WordPress root directory and then recreate
   it manually or delete it and re-upload a blank .htaccess file and let WordPress
   re-edit it via the WP-Admin CP.

 * If you cannot view the htaccess file and ‘view hidden files’ it checked in CPanel,
   chances are you need to re-upload the file or use an FTP program such as FileZilla
   to view the htaccess file.
 * Also check httpd.conf and make sure, as above, that mod_rewrite isn’t commented
   out. If it is, the file will be read as a normal file.
 * If it is commented out and you edit httpd.conf and save the changes, you’ll need
   to restart apache before the changes will take effect.

 * MySQL can be installed to a Windows server, however, default is generally MS 
   SQL which WordPress doesn’t currently support last I recall. You’ll need to have
   both PHP and MySQL installed for WordPress to function correctly.
